A sturdy slab-serif with rounded, softened corners and mostly even stroke weight throughout. The serifs read as chunky and gently bracketed, creating a cushioned silhouette rather than sharp, chiseled edges. Counters are open and shapes are broadly proportioned, with a consistent rhythm that stays legible in text. Curves and joins show subtle rounding and occasional notch-like transitions that give the letterforms a slightly “inked” or press-printed character.
Works especially well for headlines, short passages, and pull quotes where a robust, characterful slab serif can set a welcoming tone. It also suits branding and packaging that benefits from a retro-leaning, friendly presence, and editorial layouts needing a bold, readable display face.
The overall tone feels friendly and nostalgic, with a playful warmth that suggests mid-century editorial or packaging typography. Its softened slabs and bouncy proportions make it approachable and informal without becoming novelty-driven.
Likely designed to combine the authority and stability of a slab serif with softened terminals for a more personable, contemporary feel. The consistent weight and rounded detailing appear aimed at creating strong impact at larger sizes while remaining readable in short text settings.
In the sample text, the strong slab structure keeps lines steady, while the rounded terminals prevent the texture from becoming harsh. Numerals match the heavy, cushioned construction, supporting headlines and display settings with a cohesive voice.
